i would run a TSP 233/239 cam with a 3200 stall... should pull nice an hard and take down most things you come across on the street and if you can tune really good it will behave relatively docile, until you punch it! (112lsa would be my choice but maybe 114lsa for easier tuning). just one mans opinion, im sure others will have theirs.

Great choice setup!

Personally I would recommend a 3400 Converter with a TorquerV2 on a 112 or 114. We've seen this combination at least 100 times with great results.

I think your speaking of the StreetSweeper HT (High Toruqe) 228/232 111LSA. That gets my vote.

you can run 233/239 cam with stock injectors (if they are the same as the corvette injectors), they will be at about 95% + duty cycle but they will work just fine. 112 LSA or 114 LSA, the wide the LSA typically the less overlap that the valves will have, less overlap (114 LSA) = smoother idle, more overlap (112 LSA) = rougher idle and is also harder to tune... i would not advise you going any tighter than 112 LSA for a street driven daily driver, anything tighter will be very difficult to tune and will give you alot of "bucking" if not tuned properly... 112 lsa will sound a little meaner than 114 lsa

you dont think a 233/239 will have to rev too high to get the power out of it?

Yes it will...for a purely street car. Unless you are looking for highway performance. For stop light performance build for low rpm torque.

Just sent a cam spec sheet to Ed Curtis... GREAT guy to deal with. Get a spec'd cam so they understand YOUR driving habits and YOUR goals.

I wrote damn near a page of what I want and where I want it to come on.
